Our series of PlaySpace zooms kicked off with an incredible bill from the top of the tops in comics and graphic novels! The children participating in the Hackney Young Voices project develop a lot of comics, and so I wanted to give them a chance to meet the professionals in that field…
Mike Perkins is an illustrator for Marvel Comics X Men, Thor, Captain America & more!
Mike Collins is a storyboard artist – inc credits for Marvel, Doctor Who, Good Omens, Horrid Henry
Jessica Martin is an acclaimed graphic novel and comics writer, illustrator and actor with Hollywood glam in mind, and acting credits including Doctor Who and Spitting image.
Plenty of great questions on origin stories, how to become an illustrator (draw, draw and keep drawing some more!), pen versus digital drawing, and we even got rick-rolled in the end. Nice one Evan.
